Background: Despite having a low mortality rate, pediatric low bone density has a significant morbidity burden. During pubertal peak growth velocity, approximately 25% of peak bone mass is accumulated. If this peak is not optimal, it will manifest the development of osteoporosis in adulthood. Thirty percent of pediatric population suffers fractures. One of the main risk factors is low bone mass.
Objectives: During clinical practice, attention was paid to the fact that osteopenia was observed in the pediatric population. We decided to investigate the bone density index using ultrasound densitometry in children of Adjara Region. Also, up to date statistical data was not found in reliable scientific sources, which fueled our desire to be more interested in the prevalence of low bone density in pediatric population.
Methods: Research was conducted at JSC “Seamen’s Medical Centre – 2010“ Batumi, Adjara, Georgia between 2020 to 2023 by utilizing an Ultrasound Bone Densitometer Sonost 2000.
Results: Among the 155 evaluated participants included in this study were aged less than 18 years, 52.90% (n=82) were girls, and 47,10% (n=73) were boys. Among them, 94.83% (n=147) demonstrated a bone density index below Normal (Low, Deficient, Critical), and 67% (n=98) of them had a deficiency in the daily consumption of dairy products.
Conclusion: According to our research, 94.83% (n=147) of children in Adjara region had a low bone density index. Notably, girls exhibited a more pronounced reduction in bone density. These results highlight the significance of monitoring and promoting the ideal bone mass in children and adolescents, also the necessity of early interventions to reduce the chance of osteoporosis in later life. There is a probable association with the reduced consumption of dairy products.
